WIS Ages & Next Acquisition?

[Ikemi]

Right! Purely curious, but on a forum you can never really tell if you're talking to an 20 year old, a 55 year old, or a gorgeous blonde model from Sweden So I was wondering how old resident PH WIS members are? Also, to add a bit of substance to the thread, what watch will be your next acquisition?

I'll start! 24 years old and fingers crossed a JLC Master Compressor Chrono by the end of the year!

[LukeBird]

I'm 22 and I have no idea what my next watch will be.
Would like it to be a Tudor Heritage, Explorer II white face or a Ball Moonphase. We'll see though!

[tuffer]

41, an IWC Vintage Ingenuer in Platinum.

Luke > You want to be me...I just stated I was saving for that Master II Moonphase.



I am 26, I recently bought a Glycine Combat 6 Manual Wind, another Seiko 5 and RLT 51 haven't seen them, as my OH has them and I'm not home.

[Suinimtao]

27, Panerai luminor 1950 marina, if I'm good!!!

I do.

I'm 38 and my next is either going to be an "old shape" Breitling Superocean Heritage or an black Submariner.

Or an LV.
Unless a purple, white or black monster turn up in the meantime or anything else I can't resist on TZ.

36. Tudor Heritage Chrono (with black face) will be ordered in the next couple of weeks!

45 - I have a couple of cheapy Seiko divers incoming, but one of these on order



Due to arrive in September

[Disco You]

I'm 19 and currently have my eye on a very nice looking seiko 5.

But it won't get purchased if I buy a tandem tomorrow

Good choice, I just missed out on a blue faced one for £20. So ordered a different one instead.

Great watch.

44, waiting for a Benrus Type 1 to be carried in from the States at the moment.
I'm never really sure what my next acquisition will be - it'd depend on when one became available coinciding with when I've got the Noriega fund stocked up enough.

Top 4 at the mo, in price order:
South African Air Force Lemania
ZRC Etanche Grands Fonds series deux (or Triton Spirotechnique)
Sinn EZM2
Tissot Navigator (one register Lemania)

[LHD]

I'm 26 and the next purchase will be the new Sub once my name comes up on the list.

I have recently bought a Milgauss GV, so that ticks the expensive watch quota for the year.

I'll probably end up with another couple of pieces.

Or a Deep Sea if a new one pops up.

I saw your post just after I had posted mine!
A chap I know from work has one and seeing it sealed the deal for me. I'd never really appreciated Balls (Giggity!) until then.

I thought you may say that!

Oh and the 16610, great choice. I love my Tudor Sub, it's fabulous! I tried on a 16610LV earlier this year, it was stunning!

[iAlex]

24 and seriously not looking for anything at the moment. Have all I need and can't justify it right now.

[sneijder]

32 and something Russian and cheap.

[CardShark]

37 and I'm really not sure...

Sinn 757, older twin crown Aquatimer, Omega PO.... and that's before getting into the strap/face combinations

[Stuart]

35, and birth year watch of some description next. Sub, possibly a Heuer chrono.

[aberdeeneuan]

I'm 34, and have absolutely no idea what the next watch will be!

Probably either another Seiko (SK007 or 9), something like a Steinhart, or if a decent birth year watch comes up I'd be interested in that. Having bought 2 watches in the last year, I'm on best behaviour at the moment though.

This thread is great. I thought you were about 40ish.

Woohoo! Toy boy.

Makes me feel old 52 last week

Incoming Longines HydroConquest Chronograph, got a thing about divers watches even though I never go diving.
